Hands down the best mocktail I've ever had was a blackberry mule - it was a bit spicy but not overpowering. Delicious. The tomato Gouda soup was rich and creamy, and the sourdough on the grilled cheese had that perfect crunch and they added thick bacon for me. The Habana plate was a great savory addition to the table. Definitely a standout spot downtown!

While the mall has lost almost every other old school tenant besides Belks, Panera and a couple of Appalachian State based stores, Tuckers has managed to keep their family business in the same spot. They have a large selection of sandwiches, wraps and hot dogs as well as breakfast options on Saturdays. They do stop serving lunch at 4pm, I believe, so plan accordingly. It is a small cafe style space with several booths on each side a a few two-top tables in between. You can also have your meal carried out in to mall entrance and there are several tables and benches just outside of the restaurant as well.

I tried to go back this year, and am so appalled by the customer service (or lack thereof) that I will now give it 0 stars, so settled for two since I can't do two and a half. Yes, the food and ambiance were wonderful in 2025. I tried to book another afternoon tea party and called a month and a half in advance. This was to celebrate multiple birthdays with a group of busy moms so wanted to get it on the calendar. No one called me back despite the voicemail saying that we would hear back "promptly." I left two more messages in a span of two, three weeks and still nothing. I even emailed, no response. Finally, a friend stopped by in person and was told that the cafe would be short staffed the weekend we wanted the reservation for so the manager needs to see if there are enough people working before confirming. Okay....but why wouldn't you call back to tell me that? Our requested reservation is tomorrow and I still have not heard back from anyone. This is abysmal customer service. As mentioned, food was good but not good enough to treat potential customers like this. Hard pass from now on and will not go back or recommend. *Editing to respond to Victoria -- those were the dates I called and left voicemails. Perhaps there was a phone issue on your end, but I did not even get a missed call. My friend who stopped by in person spoke to a manager. She had to go by twice due to the manager not being available the first time. I also did not get an email response.

Will never return. Go to Pisgah Bake House if you want an amazing scone!

I realized after shopping here that they are at a new location due to Hurricane Helene. I'm unsure…read moreif their current location is permanent, but they are currently located at 311 NW US 25 70 HWY, Hot Springs, NC 28743. This was one of very few small businesses that had yet to reopen when we visited. So we wanted to stop in and show our support by buying some gifts and a cup of tea. Still in the process of reestablishing, their new space is coming along nicely. Lots of pretty jewelery, trinkets, crystals, various gifts and even a small selection of plants. It appears that multiple talented artisans sell their work here. I've wanted a Rose of Jericho for a long time, but had resisted buying one so far. There are reports that much of what is available on the market has been poached from wildlife. But when one of the owners noticed my interest in them, he told me how when they were finally allowed to come back after the hurricane, they opened the door to their flooded shop to see all the Rose Of Jerichos alive and floating in the water. "I knew right then that we were going to be ok." I was sold and will cherish mine, with this sentiment attached. I also bought myself a new little Pilea for my Fairy Garden, some beautiful earrings, and a handful of gifts for my loved ones. I snagged a hot tea as I paid for purchases and then used their clean restroom before we headed out into the wilderness for the day. This seems to be another favorite amongst the Appalachian Trail pack, and I can see why. Im looking forward to coming back later in the season and seeing their progress in rebuilding.

I figured a coffee shop might serve up better internet anyway, and I wasn't wrong. The morning crew was bustling but friendly, quickly selling me a cup for the self-serve station and pointing me toward the stairs. The ground floor is cozy and compact, but they've got a second level that opens things up nicely. I chose the light roast labeled 'Autumn Honduras,' which turned out to be a fabulous pick ‐ bright, smooth, and just what I needed. I added a modest splash of cream, climbed the stairs, and found a quiet spot to settle in. I spent a solid hour up there, sipping slowly and sketching out the next leg of my journey through the mountains. It's a genuinely comfortable space, with enough warmth and quiet to make a full workday feel entirely doable. You could easily lose track of time here, and I wouldn't blame you one bit.

It took us 45 minutes to find a parking spot. I arrived at 1 in the afternoon with 2 hangry teenagers. One restaurant claimed a 1.5 hour wait and another 2 hours! Luckily the girls had spied some vintage clothing outside of a little Cafe. So back down the street we trudged. What a gem!! No crowd, our turkey and veggie burgers were cooked to our liking in minutes. Bonus-- each girl scored a lovely vintage piece of clothing that had them grinning from ear to ear. Beware, this is neither fancy nor anything close to gourmet. But in a pinch, it suited us wonderfully. You could NOT meet any nicer folks than Dean and Shanaat! Hugs all around when we left.
